afflicted with hernia caused by his ex-

TARIFF REVISION will form the
principal question for discussion in
the new congress, and the fact that
Mr.. Carlisle will doubtless be elected
again as speaker is an assurance that
be will be the leader of movement
to give the country both tariff revis-
ion and revenue reduction so far as
the business interests of the country
require it. The believing OF Repub-
- lican nrgans about--an attnEnrtT-s,
Democrats to force free-trade doctrines
upon the country is simply bosh and
shows that these papers are hard up
for some thing better and more sensi-
BILE to talk about. The Democratic
congressman who have the good of
the country and the success of their
party at beart, know as we'll as the
Republicans that Uncle Sans domain
could not exist under free-trade, and
that any party, that advocates free
trade principals is bound to be defeat
ed and showed under. They will
consequently move very carefully in
the matter and will only favor such
legislation as will protect :labor and
reduce Unnecessary high revenues.

A Terrible Cave-in at the Hummel
town Stone Quarries.

A cave-in Of earth and sto ne at the
Hummelstown brown stone quarries
Tuesday afternoon about 3 O'Clock re-
suited in the death OF four men and in
jury to another. The quarries are about
three miles east of Hummelstown, and
in their operation nearly 1000 men and
boys are employed. There are three ex-
cavations, and the one In which the
accident occurred is known as No. l..
situated between the others. The &C.
scending avalanche increases In volume
as it rushes into the shaft, and before
the men thought of danger the entire
mountain side seemed to be rent as
under, and under its iDconeeivable
weight the bodies of at least FIVE men
were buried. The extent OF the cave
In is about 100 feet in diameter and
fully so feet deep. Men were set to
work at once to save the buried work
men If possible, and two hours after Mr.
Boyer was found he having beet un der
eight feet of debris.
